Moreland homered, a solo shot, in a 2-for-3 game in Monday's loss to the Angels.

EDGE Analysis

Moreland has sat out five of the past 10 games and was in a 10-for-45 funk dating back to June 17 before Monday's breakout performance,. His last multi-hit game game on June 16 and his last home run came on June 13, so he badly needed a night like this. Part of his time on the bench can be blamed on the Rangers playing in a National League stadium out of the break, but he is hitting a brutal .217/.254/.383 against left-handed pitching and will likely ride the pine against them as often as is feasible the rest of the way.
